Quick Water Requirements

Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 3.85 g | 15.4 qt) 3.58 14.3  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 3.85 g | 15.4 qt) 3.64 14.6  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.09 -0.4  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.51 2  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 4.27 g | 17.1 qt) 4 16  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.02 -0.1  
Post boil volume (equipment estimates 2.75 g | 11 qt) 3 12  
Going into fermentor (equipment estimates 3 g | 12 qt) 2.75 11  
WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.
